I just checked it for the first time in ages and we've got:

  • /r/WinStupidPrizes
  • /r/Cringetopia
  • /r/JusticeServed
  • /r/IdiotsInCars
  • /r/facepalm
  • /r/PublicFreakout
  • /r/TIHI (Thanks I Hate It)
  • Some guy celebrating his divorce with a selfie featuring his miserable looking ex wife
  • And of course some gaming stuff

At what point did Reddit become so obsessed with finding people to recreationally get mad at? It's like a majority of the front page content. Terrible vibes.

    So many people absolutely think this. I know way too many people who when I was a passenger and told them to slow down because there's often kids playing in this particular street / cyclists coming or whatever their response is "It's not my fault if I hit them, they shouldn't be in the road."

    Which isn't even legally correct, but besides that, is absolutely fucking psychotic. I used to wonder about cultures that do human sacrifices when I was younger, now I don't anymore.

          They've got some weird Albanian folklore about that, too. Might even be the origin of the German folklore - the Serbian version of the story was the one that made it to Jacob Grimm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rozafa_Castle#Legend

      As much as I hate having to drive, I hate being a passenger more. So many people drive like they think nothing bad could ever happen to them and/or become complete psychopaths who hate everyone else on the road.
